Match prediction 9 of 48 of our Rugby World Cup 2023 betting series.
Steven's prediction accuracy 2023: ✔️ 83.33%.
On Thursday, the 14th of September, we will see France v Uruguay for the first match of the second round of Rugby World Cup games. This will be a Pool A game, and all the action will kick off at 8 p.m.
The officials for this encounter will be Ben O'Keeffe, Paul Williams and James Doleman, with the TMO for the day being Ben Whitehouse.
Les Bleus have yet to play a full international against Los Teros, so it will be interesting to see the two teams clash for the first time. The home side are the clear favourites for this one, but can the South American underdogs turn around the expected result? Let's explore my France v Uruguay prediction ideas.

🔍 France v Uruguay France Prediction
I think the best way to approach this is to look at recent form. Les Bleus certainly proved their worth in the opening game of the Rugby World Cup, having secured a 27-13 victory - as I foresaw in my France v New Zealand prediction. They also won four out of five matches prior to that game. Uruguay, on the other hand, have won four out of six of their last matches, albeit these were against tier-two nations, unlike France's tier-one opponents. Personally, I do not see any upsets here. The score difference will be by 35 points, and the French will move on swiftly to preparing for their test against Namibia.
✔️ France v Uruguay Betting Tips
1️⃣ Match France: France to Win
Is there any point to odds of France to win at 1.001 at BoyleSports? Not in my eyes. I would give this market a miss.
2️⃣ Handicap France: Uruguay to Win (+46.5)
I imagine many will disagree with the handicap margin of 35 points that I have picked, but I don't think France will need to do anywhere near as much in this match as they did against New Zealand last Friday. I think perhaps they will treat this as a game to experiment rather than hammer one of the lowest teams in the competition into oblivion. By that logic, I think I would go for a more out-there bet of Uruguay to win (+46.5) at 3.30 TonyBet Sports.
